Calorimeter and Heat Exchanges. Calorimeter

question 1

(FIEB-SP) The inner cup of a calorimeter is made of aluminum and has a mass of 30 g. In its interior, where there is 150 g of pure water at a temperature of 20 °C, 200 g of steel balls are poured, which are initially at a temperature of 60 °C. Knowing that the specific heat of aluminum is 0.2 cal/g.ºC, that of water, 1 cal/g.ºC, and the thermal equilibrium temperature of the set equals 25 °C, the specific heat of the steel and the amount of heat exchanged by the steel balls with the system have values, respectively and approximately, equal to

a) 0.11 cal/g.ºC and 780 cal, provided.

b) 0.11 cal/g.ºC and 780 cal, received.

c) 0.55 cal/g.ºC and 890 cal, provided.

d) 0.55 cal/g.ºC and 890 cal, received.

e) 0.88 cal/g.ºC and 780 cal, provided.

question 2

(UEA-AM) The thermal capacity of a body (C) is defined as the ratio between the amount of heat it receives (Q) and the corresponding temperature variation occurred (ΔT):

If a body with a thermal capacity of 25 cal/°C receives heat from a source for 20 minutes at a constant rate of 50 cal/min, it undergoes a temperature variation, in °C, equal to

a) 10.0.

b) 40.0.

c) 50.0.

d) 62.5.

e) 84.5.
